We divide 551145 by 74
Let's see how many times 74 fits into 551145.

Moving on to step 1:
74 goes into 5 0 times with a remainder of 5.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we take 0 away from 5, we end up with 5.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 5, then repeat: 55 / 74

On to step 2:
The number 74 fits into 55 0 times, leaving a remainder of 55.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 55, we get 55.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 55 and repeat the process: 551 / 74

Step 3:
74 can be fit into 551 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 33.
Put 7 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 7.0
Deduct 518 from 551 and we're left with 33.
Include the next digit (1) from the dividend after 33, then repeat: 331 / 74

Let's proceed to step 4:
74 goes into 331 4 times with a remainder of 35.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 74.0
Deduct 296 from 331 and we're left with 35.
Fetch the next digit (4) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 354 / 74

Moving on to step 5:
When dividing 354 by 74, we get 4 with a remainder of 58.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 744.0
Subtracting 296 from 354 leaves us with 58.
Take the next digit (5) from the dividend and append it to 58, then repeat: 585 / 74

Advancing to step 6:
When dividing 585 by 74, we get 7 with a remainder of 67.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7447.0
If we subtract 518 from 585, we get 67.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 670, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
When dividing 670 by 74, we get 9 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 9. 
Result so far: 7447.9
Deduct 666 from 670 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 8:
When dividing 40 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 7447.9
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
400 divided by 74 is 5 with a remainder of 30.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 7447.905
The remainder is 30 after subtracting 370 from 400.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
When dividing 300 by 74, we get 4 with a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 7447.9054
Subtracting 296 from 300 leaves us with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 11:
If we divide 40 by 74, we get 0 and a remainder of 40.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 7447.9054
Subtracting 0 from 40 leaves us with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 12:
The number 74 fits into 400 5 times, leaving a remainder of 30.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7447.905405
Subtracting 370 from 400 leaves us with 30.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 300, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
If we divide 300 by 74, we get 4 and a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 7447.9054054
Deduct 296 from 300 and we're left with 4.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 40, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
When dividing 40 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 40.
Use 0 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 7447.9054054
Deduct 0 from 40 and we're left with 40.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 400, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 7447.9054054 with a balance of 4e-08.
